Where to buy genuine NGK spark plugs...

[pookett]

....preferably in Patong but Kathu or Phuket town is fine.

 

Lazada etc. is awash with fakes as are the couple of bike repair shops I visited today.

( Model CPR8EA-9 )

To be certain I'd go to an official Honda/Yamaha dealer.

To the person that posted the "Haha", how about elaborating?

Not me, but main dealers do top you up. I have bought NGK plugs on Lazada from shops in LOS. I have had no problems......

My Honda lawn mower and car run great......????

True, but the OP only wants a spark plug.

 

The first service on my ADV at an official dealer was B290 - okay, it's only an oil-change and quick checkover but they did it while I waited and I was pleasantly surprised.

But Lazada deliver to the door for peanuts, so drive to the dealers to then pay over the top, seems a bit daft to me...........????

As the signs say, BaNGKok.

Lazada deliver copies to your door.

Here's a copy bought locally....

There are clues in both the packaging and the plug itself.

Lazada does not deliver copies, a shop using Lazada may..????

[pookett]

A shop on Lazada using the Laz mail delivery service means Lazada delivered it, the shop only supplied it ????????

In answer to my own question.

Why do I always forget about Prasut bikes in Kathu?!

 

Great place, plug procured.

The price for this, at 150b, is guaranteed it was a fake, I've also bought fake plug from Lazada, I think anyway...

 

The street biker opposite Honda main bike dealer in Phuket town are fairly honest, the girl there offers me 3 types of spare parts, grade B copy, grade A copy and genuine...! Saying that I have no way of knowing the genuine part I paid for is a copy/fake...!? I've given up worry about it now, it's just the way it is over here... 🙄

I believe GP Autoparts in Bangkok sell NGK.  I've bought parts for several cars from them and all have been genuine.  They seem to have changed their name but this is they.......and they do have English speakers. If not NGK, they will have another proprietory brand.

Lucky there is such an efficient returns policy, then.
